Elvis was named after his father, Vernon Elvis Presley and Mr. Presley's good friend in Tupelo, Aaron Kennedy. Aron was the spelling the Presleys chose, either it was a spelling mistake or apparently to make it similar to the middle name of Elvis' stillborn identical twin, Jesse Garon Presley. Toward the end of his life, Elvis sought to change the spelling of his middle name to the traditional and biblical Aaron. In the process he learned that official state records had inexplicably listed it as Aaron, and not Aron as on his original birth records. Knowing Elvis' plans for his middle name, Aaron is the spelling his father chose for Elvis' tombstone, and it's the spelling his estate has designated as the official spelling when the middle name is used today. In Memphis, Elvis was enrolled in the eighth grade at Humes High School, as Elvis Aaron Presley. Source: www.elvis.com.au January 25, 2008

Elvis's middle name is spelled Aron. It's even wrong on his gravestone.

It’s a tragedy that he died so young And his daughter passed at 54.. I have to say his Granddaughter Riley now 35 is doing a great job in keeping her Mom wishes .. she is a good actress as well.
